]]>The Pisces New Moon – March 17th 2018

The Pisces New Moon falls on Saturday 17th March at 1.11pm in London (adjust for your time zone). The whole planet will feel it all weekend. But where will the new beginning in your life come from – and how can you make this new chapter work for you? It all begins with Space Clearing. This is a term which appears in books by Karen Kingston and Denise Linn. The idea of cleaning up and clearing up – making space in your life – is also behind the recent Spark Joy movement. I also wrote about this in the book 21st Century Goddess, with my friends Jelena Glisic and Anthea Paul. The key to this New Moon is simple. It’s in Pisces, the sign of the fishes, ruled by Neptune, the planet we associate with the ocean. You’ve attracted flotsam and jetsam in the last few years. Seaweed. Driftwood. Foam and pollution. It’s drifted in. Now, get rid of it! Then you can make a fresh start.

When I worked with Anthea and Jelena on the Energy Clearing section of 21st Century Goddess (published in Australia and Great Britain) we had the opportunity to road-test the decluttering and de-junking techniques in our book. I loved the results. To this day, if I am dealing with people or situations which seem murky, messy or muddled, I always begin with my home, hotel room or even my moat. Where are things ‘gathering’ like so much plastic or rubber pollution on the sand? It is amazing what you can miss on your own computer. You may find all kinds of flotsam and jetsam has washed up there. It’s the same with your e-mail in-box.

A New Moon in astrology is always a new beginning but you can’t make one until you have cleared away the mess of 2017. Maybe your situation (I will describe it below, opposite your Sun sign) began as far back as 2015 or 2016. In any case, you can read more about the New Moon here, if you are curious. And of course, I recommend 21st Century Goddess as a how-to book. Some really interesting things happened for Anthea Paul, Jelena Glisic and I after our ‘girl’s guide to the universe’ came out all those years ago. Anthea went on to critical acclaim and bestselling success with her famous Girlosophy series. Jelena found her soulmate and life partner and I went to her wedding! In my own life, using Energy Clearing/Space Clearing transformed my career. Together with Fiona Walker, Chris Manby, Maggie Alderson, Nick Earls and Imogen Edwards-Jones I edited Girls’ Night In, Girls’ Night In/Boys’ Night Out and Big Night Out in aid of the charity War Child – and ended up dating one of our heroic field workers in Afghanistan.

My point is, cleaning up and clearing up can have powerful and profound consequences. It makes things very clear in your mind, because your bedroom (even) is one of the biggest influences on how you see yourself and your world. It’s the last thing you see at night. The first thing you see in the morning. What if your wardrobe is like a forgotten and neglected museum? Well, exactly. You’ll be amazed at how just a closet/wardrobe clean-up across March 17th and 18th can help you move on.

The trick with Energy Clearing is to also use Feng Shui or creative visualisation to bring in who/what you want. Here is a really important point about this Pisces New Moon. It’s also about getting rid of who/what has wasted your time and energy. We are coming to the close of a very long Salacia and Chiron cycle in Pisces, alongside Neptune. Who or what has washed up in your life that you now realise was a bigger mess than you thought? Clear your bedroom (at least) and clear this person out too.

Get Real and Get Clear in March 2018

You need to get real and clear on any Pisces cycle. That means clearing the hair off your face and getting the full measure of where you stand, on shifting sand (below). Then you can use this Pisces New Moon of mid-March 2018 to make a genuinely fresh start. If you want to know more about what a New Moon does, read here.

Which Area of Your Life is Affected by the Pisces New Moon?

I’ll look at your personal birth chart if you are a Premium Member in a moment. If you are curious about the headlines of your life, though, look to the main story. Your Sun Sign gives you your Solar Sign house system reading. And I’m sure you will identify. Where, in March 2018, do you feel others are muddying the waters? Where do you feel all at sea, confused or unable to get a good, firm, grip on what is going on? Where is it time to space clear? The New Moon weekend of March 17th and 18th is ideal.

For Premium Members – Do You Have Pisces Factors?
Pisces factors at 25, 26, 27 are triggered now, but if you have any Pisces placements at all, it’s time to get real and get clear about the hidden side of your life. By that I mean, very specifically –

*How you lie to yourself.
*Denial. It’s not a river in Egypt!
*Deceiving others.
*Your involvement with the occult.
*Secret or classified information.
*What you cover up.
*What you do unconsciously – passive aggression, for example.
*Games you play with yourself and other people.
*Psychic work, Tarot, mediumship, palmistry, scrying.
*Dreams and dream work.
*Imagination and visualisation.
*Theories not facts
*God
*Spying and all hidden information gathering
*Alcohol or drug abuse.

Who to Get Rid Of – What To Get Rid Of – Pisces New Moon Action Plans

I am going to recap something I wrote some years ago about Neptune people who may have been messing up your life in regard to the above! If you immediately identify a man or woman who has been muddying the water, you know what to do. It’s time to put boundaries in, or even decide to axe them from your life.

NEPTUNE PEOPLE AND HOW TO IDENTIFY THEM

Watch out for new people in your life who have exact aspects in their horoscopes involving Neptune, when a particular aspect starts a Neptune story in your life. You can check their charts at Astrodienst. Neptunian types often have issues with boundaries. The most basic boundaries of all are time and space, so if someone in your world now is too late, or too early, or doesn’t know what day it is – welcome to Neptune made manifest. People with Pisces horoscope placements or exact Neptune aspects are classic candidates. They seem all over the place, all the time. Too early, too late. Clocks and calendars are not their thing. The expression ‘she doesn’t know what day it is’ describes a Neptunian very well.

Cristian Alvarez

Goodbye Mr or Miss Flakey?

Boundaries revolve around territory, so when you are considering a potential Neptunian in your life – look for shambolic or chaotic patterns where the territory seems to be irrelevant. So – perhaps this person drives all over the road, or is messy by nature (their stuff spills over into other people’s space). Other classic Neptunian traits? A dependence on alcohol or drugs to give them an alternative to the real world. A life half-lived in fantasy (television, computer games, meditation). The longing for the spa, the addiction to the ocean – it’s all Neptune! Other Neptunian classics include meditation groups which are really cults in disguise – and anything else which is as addictive and transporting as surfing or swimming, but to an addictive degree. The surfing or swimming becomes a substitute for the real world because the true Neptunian seeks an alternative to reality.

In my Penguin/Viking book 2020 Vision I wrote about the confusing and confused impact of Neptune, based on your solar chart (your sun sign).

Neptunians – those people who are both confused and confusing – or lost (and who lose you as well) are managed fairly easily. You have to treat them like fish being put into a tank, or salmon being put into an enclosure. You can even give Neptunians exactly what they want, which is the illusion that they are free to be all over the place, everywhere, all the time – yet ring-fence the experience by creating strong boundaries, walls and parameters around the situation. Sooner or later they will wake up and bump into these – an awful experience for a Neptunian – but it won’t be too long before they are caught by the next current and swim away again. In the meantime, you have the satisfaction of knowing that Miss or Mr Neptune is actually being curtailed and contained. The idea of containment, enclosure, marshalling, directing and channelling Neptunian people and experiences is a good, strong one to work with in this cycle. There have to be rules. Fences. Laws. It’s boring and dull and the true Neptunian dislikes it, but he or she gets over it soon enough.

There are worse kinds of Neptunians too. These people may be strongly Pisces or Neptune. They are slippery and slimy. They undermine you. They go behind your back. Nail them. Let them know you’ve caught them. Then figure out how to throw them back in the sea and steer your ship right away!

Are You a Premium Member?

Premium members, check your birth chart now, If you have heavenly bodies in Pisces then Neptune will form a conjunction to one or more of these placements, either now or in the years ahead. Because this planet operates like water – seeping in, creeping under, washing over – it can help to be completely aware of the transit before it happens. You’ll feel him, too. He may even turn up in human form (people with horoscopes dominated by the sign of Pisces or Neptune are good contenders for this role in your life).

Neptune will either feel like a process, or manifest as a person. Either way, your viewpoint helps, as this cycle is utterly new. So you can still remember enough of your life, pre-Neptune, to understand what is shifting! Before too long it is all too easy to be dragged under. It’s rather like scuba-diving and losing connection and contact with those on dry land. A Neptune conjunction to the heavenly bodies in your horoscope is subtle, tempting, confusing and confused. It operates like gas seeping under the door, or the gentle wash of foam on stone. If someone or something lacks clarity, organisation, precision, parameters or boundaries then you are being Neptuned. If they can’t remember what you said, or they can’t remember what *they* said, then you may be with a Neptunian. Forgetting is often a side-effect of being put to sleep under anaesthetic. And remember, Neptune and anaesthetic were both born at the same time.

Fakes and Imitations

The word ‘cod’ refers to Britain’s most famous fish, but it’s also a slang term for fake. Cod was once the cheap imitation of more expensive fish, so a ‘cod’ is a version – not the real thing. The internet is full of fake names and faces. Avatars and false identities. All these Neptune/Pisces ideas are typical of the cycle. Beware fake friends who spend a lot of time swimming around on Facebook, also known to some people as Fakebook!

Flakes and Flakey People
Flake is another famous fish, this time in Australia. We speak about ‘flakey’ people who are unreliable, late, missing, slippery, elusive, evasive and all the rest. It is very common to be strongly affected by flakey people on a Neptune cycle. In relation to the list at the top of this story, who/what can you contain, control or clear out on the Pisces New Moon?

We’re very close to the Spring Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere. So think of your life as a chrysalis waiting to become a butterfly. Before that can happen, though, you have spring-cleaning to do.

Space Clearing is a good way to do this in your actual room, house or apartment. Drawers full of muddle are a sure sign that there is muddle elsewhere in your life too. So is a muddled or messy computer! If you are curious about this then please see Karen Kingston’s website.

Here’s an old tip from 21st Century Goddess (Allen and Unwin) which I wrote some years ago. Hold objects in your hand. Do they bring your energy up or down? Unwanted presents? Expensive mistake purchases? Simple junk?

If your energy is brought down, bin-bag everything. Leave it for a month. Do you miss it? Give it to the charity shop!

If any arrangement in your life is unclear, because of poor communication/no communication, this New Moon is time to fix it. Space clearing can help you. It raises your awareness of what is in your life and why it is there. This helps you order your plans. It’s time to put yourself front and centre after months or even years of classic Pisces/Neptune messiness. YOU HERE. YOU NOW!

Robert Hand notes, "Death. Inheritance. Other people's money" in his book, Horoscope Symbols but neglects to mention sex.

]]>Horoscope Houses in Astrology

In this continuing series about the Horoscopes Houses in Astrology, we come to the Eighth House. The Eighth House is ruled by the zodiac sign Scorpio. If you are a Premium Member and have your birth chart, you can see at a glance which planets, asteroids, Nodes or angles are in either house. If you have a stellium in Scorpio, it is the Eighth House of sex and money, which shapes your life.

Even if you don’t have your natal chart (personal birth horoscope) with all the 34 factors of modern astrology, you can still find out a great deal about predicting the future, from watching the Seventh House and Eighth House in your ‘public’ horoscope. This is your Sun Sign horoscope or Solar Sign chart. It’s a different system but it works to show you what the world in general knows about you. What the world sees. (Your personal chart shows the huge, sweeping, back story).

The Eighth House can also show your personality. This is where it becomes complicated, but interesting. The patterns (aspects) made involving factors in these houses can show how difficult or easy it is for you to ‘do’ the sexual agreements of the Eighth House!

Horoscope Houses in Astrology – The Eighth House

Howard Sasportas, writing in The Twelve Houses (Thorsons 1985) gets closer, writing “The Elizabethans referred to the orgasm as ‘the little death.” This is very true of the scorpion itself, from which Scorpio takes its symbol.

Naturally, sex is at the heart of the usual marriage/mortgage combination upon which all banks depend. The phrase ‘until debt tear us apart’ (below) is a wry comment on that. I am sure you know about the famous scorpion mating dance called the ‘promenade’ when two scorpions risk death from a lethally venomous sting – or cannibalism. Ancient astrologers had a sense of humour. The truth is, two people who commit to sex, and possibly children, are usually on the road to marriage, with its famous vow – ‘Until death do us part.’

The Eighth House, centuries ago, before no-fault divorce arrived in the 1970’s, was very much about sexual union that meant death was the only way out. An unhappy marriage, particularly for a woman – who before she obtained the vote, or The Pill, had no power to leave – could lead all the way to the end.

Have you ever seen those Scorpio zodiac signs hidden away under columns in churches and cathedrals? Every other sign is on proud display but using ancient astrological knowledge, Christian builders always put the scorpion where we see it in nature – hidden, partly revealed, concealed in the shadows. You can see one in Canterbury Cathedral in Kent, England. This may be why after Pluto was discovered in 1930, this planet was given rulership over Scorpio and the Eighth House.

Pluto was the Roman god of the underworld, who lived in darkness and was only seen once, fully revealed – when he abducted his future wife, Proserpina. In nature, I am sure you know that a scorpion can be lethal, because it is hidden. Scorpions tend to hide under ledges or rocks.

This brings us to the dark side of the Eighth House, and Scorpio itself, which is reflected in the hidden side of sexual union. The question of the legacy, or last will and testament, is never far behind. When Pluto himself passed through Scorpio for the first time in around 250 years, from November 1983, the world had to adjust to the pain of the HIV virus and AIDS. By 1987 when alarmed governments were promoting safe sex and condoms, it was clear to us all, that intercourse could kill.

From the Eighth House and Scorpio we have the familiar image of the vampire, who has become an erotic symbol to all the people who were born when Pluto was in that zodiac sign and house, from November 1983 to November 1995. Vampires – technically dead – have sex with the living – who then become the undead. Inevitably, the vampire in question has a castle, oil paintings, gold rings and an impressive fortune. It honestly doesn’t get more Eighth House than that!

Yet, although our recent experiences with the Pluto in Scorpio generation, with their Goth fixation and Twilight fandom have given the Eighth House a rather cliched association with the dark side of sexuality – all the way to their curiosity about auto-asphyxiation and bondage (Fifty Shades of Grey) – there is far more to it than that.

The highest expression of the Eighth House is the marriage which is based on the usual pledge of ‘Until death do us part’ that unites both partners in the pursuit of a legacy that goes beyond mere money. Scorpio Bill Gates and his partner Melinda Gates are a good example of that. No vampires here. When they both pass, their astonishing fortune will pass with them, to help their fellow human beings in life-or-death situations.

However you play it, the Eighth House is always about sex, death and money in one pattern or another. It may be your former girlfriend who is building the house which she may/may not inherit from you, if you are to get back together and change your will. It may be the male sex worker who knows your secrets, who you pay to cover them up.

One final point. I sometimes hear from readers who believe astrology can predict death (wrong) and who think the Eighth House transits or natal placements show the time one will die. Wrong again. For the true nature of the Eighth House, ask yourself what is in your will, or why you have not yet made one. Ask yourself who is likely to leave you a bequest. That’s the Eighth House. The first thing couples do upon divorce is change their wills. That is also the Eighth House. The first thing couples do when they marry, is also change their wills. Again – that’s the Eighth House. Wills are never spoken of and seldom revealed. Like the scorpion’s back half, tucked away under columns in churches and cathedrals, it’s in shadow. That’s the Eighth!

How the Pisces Weather in March 2018 Affects Us All

Here comes the Strange Season. March will be mysterious, sometimes confusing. If you have anything at all in Pisces in your chart then you will be affected. Why?

In March 2018, an unusually high number of planets and asteroids all spend time in Pisces. Mercury, Diana, the Sun, Hygiea, Bacchus, Venus, Panacea, Chiron, Aesculapia, Vulcano, Neptune, Juno and Apollo will all transit, or travel through, the sign of the fishes.

People you know who are strongly Pisces will respond to the weather!

Giving up alcohol or drugs
Taking alcohol or drugs for the first time
Beginning a prescription for anti-anxiety or anti-depressant medication
Holidays on or by the sea – swimming, diving, sailing, rafting, canoeing
Beginning hypnosis, psychic development, astral travel, meditation, yoga, mediumship
Spying or ‘internet stalking’
Disappearing, vanishing – going on retreat, hibernating, going under the radar
Starting a website, blog or social media channel
Upgrading the television or computer (or phone) to absorb more music, film, television

All About Pisces

Pisces is just what you expect. Drifting, floating, ebbing and flowing in a different space (another world) to everybody else. Losing yourself and sometimes getting lost in a ‘reality’ which is quite real to you, but miles away to others. This ‘reality’ has no boundaries. It has to be carefully contained and controlled or you risk getting in over your head.

All these (above) will make headlines in March 2018. If you have a personal or professional connection with swimming, sailing, the Navy and the rest, be aware of the potential for muddled or messy conditions in March. Check risks/rules more than you usually might.

How March is Your Holiday From Reality

March is a holiday from reality, if you are cautious about the conditions and stick to common-sense rules. What do I mean by a vacation from the real world? Well, if you have one or more Pisces factors, we’ll find you in the spa, the swimming pool, the yacht, the beach hut, the cruise liner or the rowing boat in March. You might be working on your pond or spending more time by the river or the sea, where you live. Just update yourself on the plumbing, the rules and regulations, the people, the vessel and the weather. Make sure the boundaries are strong around the situation and if there are no boundaries put them in.

Why Sunday 4th March is Extreme Pisces Weather

We have an unusually high number of aspects (patterns) in Pisces on Sunday 4th March, in London. Adjust for your time zone. Because we need to allow the world to catch up with itself, the patterns below must cover 72 hours, rather than just Sunday 4th March 2018.

On Saturday 3rd March, Sunday 4th March, Monday 5th March we will see heavy rainfall and severe flooding across the world. Key cities, large parts of individual countries and simultaneous rising sea and river levels in many countries will create potential chaos.

Read the weather forecast carefully for March 3rd, 4th, 5th and be aware of the risk of floods and storms where you live, and also to any travel destinations. I am writing this on Saturday 17th February so I hope I am giving you enough warning.

Do You Have Pisces Factors at 12, 13, 14, 26, 27, 28?

That weekend of 3rd and 4th March, and possibly Monday 5th March, is an escape from the real world for you. It will offer you a holiday from reality. At the same time you could end up floundering. Drifting. Perhaps getting lost. Try to contain and control the experience, which may involve typical Pisces aquatic pursuits (above) or ‘being caught in the Net’ which is another way of describing surfing the Internet but finding yourself feeling all at sea.

Hacking, Leaks, Phishing and Wikileaks in March 2018

As you might expect, Pisces rules leaks, Wikileaks and phishing on the Worldwide Web. Your secrets will be more vulnerable to hackers and your privacy and security more prone to problems like phishing in March. Take more precautions than you normally would.

Drugs and Alcohol and Pisces

I am sure you know at least one Pisces alcoholic or illegal drug user. It’s almost a cliché of astrology, but like all clichés it is true. If you know someone who is vulnerable to this, or are vulnerable yourself, then March is a good month to get real and stay real. It’s essential. Pisces rules the trips we take on a yacht and the trips we take on Magic Mushrooms. Pisces rules shipwrecks but also getting wrecked on alcohol. Be sharply aware of this in March.

Pharmaceutical Companies in March

Pisces rules legal drugs as well as illegal drugs. Pharmaceutical companies will launch new products in March. We need to be watchful about what these pills or serums do, the side-effects and the law. New party drugs will arrive in March 2018 too. Again, be watchful.

Sports and Olympic Doping

I’m sure you have already made the connection between Pisces and sports doping. Performance-enhancing drugs at the Olympics is a sad fact of life. We are going to see revelations in a chain of headlines about sports doping in March 2018 in Pisces weather. People you know who are hooked on legal or illegal drugs will be centre-stage in March.

The USA – North Carolina and South Carolina

I predicted problems with the 2016 USA Election in North Carolina and South Carolina on this website some time ago. The eclipse (which is always a cover-up) fell right across them.

March 2018 triggers serious issues about racism in the United States, and the status of black and white voters. Why? Because a very old chart, going back to slave trade days, is triggered. This flood of Pisces weather in March will put a big focus on North/South Carolina.

There are at least 20 charts for the United States. The ‘birth’ horoscope set for the United States of America Confederacy on 4th February 1861 timed at exactly 12.00 noon in Montgomery, Alabama reveals Neptune at 27 Pisces.

This is the birth chart for the old Confederate States of America. The independent Southern States – Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina. Later on, Virginia, Arkansas, North Carolina and Tennessee would leave the USA to join the Confederacy.

In March 2018 we have a pile-up at 27 Pisces, as we’ve seen. There will be historic and serious questions raised on Saturday 3rd, Sunday 4th, Monday 5th March about 2016 election voter boundaries in the Southern states.

Why? Pisces weather is about boundaries disappearing or becoming confused. It is about the mess and muddle of ‘lines’ being shifted.

Issues about laws, rules and regulations concerning that election, specifically about the Southern states, will also arise on Saturday 3rd, Sunday 4th, Monday 5th March.

These serious and historic issues for North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and other old Southern states continues – with a New Moon close by at 26 Pisces on Saturday 17th March.
The Chiron-Sun conjunction is also very close at 28 Pisces on Sunday 18th March.
There are other factors circulating within one degree of the pattern, later on.

Monday 5th March
Venus 27 Pisces conjunct Panacea 27 Pisces

Saturday 17th March
NEW MOON. Sun 26 Pisces conjunct Moon 26 Pisces

Sunday 18th March
Sun 28 Pisces conjunct Chiron 28 Pisces

Saturday 24th March
Chiron 28 Pisces conjunct Apollo 28 Pisces

South Carolina, North Carolina, Florida and the Southern States – Prediction

Near Sunday 4th March, Monday 5th March, Saturday 17th March, Sunday 18th March, Saturday 24th March the ghost of 1861 and the Confederate States of America will be back to haunt the USA.

In March 2018, investigative journalists and the concerned public need to look extremely carefully at spies, cover-ups, undercover operations and hacking regarding the 2016 US election, specifically in the old Southern States and also hidden plots affecting future elections. Voter boundary lines will be of major concern. If you see the old Confederate flag flying March 4th, 5th, 17th, 18th, 24th then look twice. Who and what is behind that flag?

Our attention will go back to the old American constitution in March 2018 and also the Republican Party. Specifically, Abraham Lincoln, the first Republican president, the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, and the 14th and 15th Amendments.

Pisces and Spies

Pisces the fishes, move under the surface, out of sight, and are very hard to catch and detect. Spying is a Pisces activity. Surveillance by CCTV camera and hacking is also ruled by Pisces. The soft version of this is ‘lurking’ or stalking on Facebook. March cranks this up. The Sun in Pisces will expose and illuminate the extent of surveillance on you, online.

Great Britain, MI6 and MI5

The horoscope hotspot for Great Britain is Pisces 2, 3. It pans out across three horoscopes for Great Britain between 1066 and 1801. When we see Pisces weather at 2, 3 degrees, we always see drama involving British spies. In March 2018 British spies will make headlines.

On April 22nd 1964, for example, Britain had a spy swap with the Russians. Greville Wynne was exchanged for Gordon Lonsdale, a KGB spymaster. Saturn was at 2, 3 Pisces.

On August 12th 1964, Ian Fleming, creator of James Bond (Agent 007) passed away. He had also been Assistant to the head of Naval Intelligence during the war. Saturn was at 2, 3 Pisces. Sometimes the universe has a sense of humour, though we have to wonder how many serious wartime secrets passed with him.

On January 8th 1961 five spies were arrested for passing secrets from the British Navy’s Underwater Warfare Establishment with suspicions of Russian involvement. Venus was at 3 Pisces, Ceres had just passed 2, 3 Pisces.

John F. Kennedy and Pisces Weather

What did MI5 and MI6 know about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy? When The Warren Commission published their report on September 27th 1964, Saturn had just passed 2, 3 Pisces. The FBI and the Secret Service were blamed. Verdict? No conspiracy.

Predictions for MI6 and MI5 in March 2018

On Tuesday 6th March we find Apollo at 1 Pisces, Vulcano at 1 Pisces, Hygiea at 1 Pisces. On Wednesday 7th March we find Vulcano at 1 Pisces and Hygiea at 1 Pisces. This is very close to the British horoscope hotspot of Pisces 2, 3.

To decode this (appropriately enough) we look at the leaders involved, both PM Theresa May and the heads of British intelligence. There is volcanic emotion, buried deep. There is also a major cover-up in the name of protection.

Because this pattern is not quite exact, the whole story may not show itself until a few days either side – but we could narrow it down to March 1st through 15th.

Russia, the KGB and Pisces Weather

The horoscope hotspot for Russia is Pisces 12, 13, 14. It pans out across five horoscopes for Russia/USSR between 1613 and 1922.

How has this panned out in Russian history?

Lenin had a stroke in May 1922 when Uranus was at 12, 13 Pisces. He quit in March 1923 with Uranus back at 13 Pisces. Cambridge Spy Kim Philby was granted Soviet citizenship in July 1963 when Chiron was at 14 Pisces.

On October 15th 1964 Nikita Khruschev, Soviet leader, was deposed while he was on holiday. Something fishy? Something Piscean? Yes. The Kremlin coup was plotted with KGB help as Chiron crossed 12, 13, 14 Pisces in 1964.

The KGB are never far away when Russia makes headlines. Neither is Pisces weather. Gorbachev was appointed President in October 1988. The North Node was at 13 Pisces.

Watch Moscow on Friday 2nd March. Why? We have a Full Moon at 00.51am, with the Sun at 11 Pisces and Moon at 11 Virgo. This is very close to the Pisces 12, 13, 14 hotspot.

Predictions for Russia in March 2018

On Sunday 4th March at 1.53pm when the Sun is at 13 Pisces conjunct Neptune at 13 Pisces, we will see the spotlight turn on Russian spies and cover-ups. This of course takes us to the Trump Russia allegations and the Mueller enquiry. The story escalates on Wednesday 14th March at 7.16pm when Neptune is at 14 Pisces alongside Apollo at 14 Pisces. This is about the leader. This is about Vladimir Putin.

On Saturday 17th March Neptune at 14 Pisces is alongside Bacchus at 14 Pisces. On Monday 26th March, Neptune at 14 Pisces is next to Diana at 14 Pisces.

Neptune and Chiron – the Moving Wallpaper in Your Life

I hope you are getting a feel for the Pisces and Twelfth House side of your life.

Ever since April 5th 2011, you have experienced both Chiron and Neptune in Pisces in the Twelfth House of your natural horoscope. The Twelfth House describes everything which is below the surface, unseen, unfathomable and mysterious. Hard to see, hard to know! Neptune is of course the old Roman ruler of the ocean and Chiron, according to Hesiod, was a teacher who ‘brought up’ heroes on ‘woody Pelion.’

Neptune is the Roman god of the ocean. The planet, passing through your chart, is a symbol of parallel universes, holidays from the real world, artificial or fake situations, the unreal masquerading as the real – and vacations from ‘ordinary’.

Caught in the Net on the Worldwide Web

This double-act has turned the Worldwide Web into an aquarium, full of fish you don’t know and will never meet (your social media friends and acquaintances) while making you vulnerable to surveillance, tracking and hacking.

Before 2011 this was simply not part of our everyday lives. Today, thanks to Chiron and Neptune, this fishy atmosphere has become commonplace. The worldwide web has become confusing and confused (two key words for Neptune). It has also become an escape from the real world (another idea connected with Neptune). It is a place of bubbles. We inhabit a bubble of our friends and followers on Facebook, sometimes known as Fakebook. This is where we might come across what Donald Trump calls Fake News.

What Chiron Taught Us About the Web

Chiron is most famously pictured in a mural from the Basilica of Herculaneum teaching the young Achilles the Kithara. He was a music teacher. He was also a healer. When Chiron passes through Pisces and your Twelfth House, he teaches you about spies, spying, hacking, phishing, lurking and surveillance. You will discover how easy it is to secretly gain access to other people’s private information on social media (for example) but also how vulnerable you are, to being snooped upon.

Wikileaks and Anonymous have been part of the cycle and have affected you in a general way. Hackers have also been part of this cycle, which ends on Tuesday 17th April 2018 when Chiron finally leaves Pisces and moves into Aries. This long double transit is over. Thus, the March 2018 Pisces weather, which is so intense, is your last big dose of the strangeness.

If you have any factors in Pisces in your personal birth chart, then between 2011 and early 2018 you have experienced life being bent out of shape. Neptune distorts. It confuses. Chiron, the great centaur and teacher, always stretches the boundaries of what is possible or acceptable.

Some people have been ‘poster boys’ for Neptune and Chiron in Pisces in the Twelfth House. Edward Snowden. Julian Assange. In general, the Worldwide Web, has become the natural home of Neptune and Chiron since 2011. It’s also called the Net. The Pisces net.

Are You Comfortably Numb?

You have never experienced both Chiron and Neptune in Pisces before. And you will never experience it again. The cycle began on April 5th 2011 and will end on 17th April 2018.

I am sure that you can see how worldwide trends and changes, affect you personally. For example, these years have coincided with a boom in affordable online medication/drugs. We have also seen Big Pharma (big pharmaceutical companies) increasing in power.

Perhaps party drugs or painkillers have become part of your world. This is a classic Pisces and Twelfth House pattern. Both are ruled by Neptune and this planet was discovered in the year that anaesthetic was used publicly for the first time.

We associate Pisces with feeling Comfortably Numb, like the Pink Floyd Song. Pisces also rules Happy Herbal Highs. All drug-induced altered states which happen below the surface – only a medical report could tell the whole world what you are taking/using – is Pisces stuff.

Alcohol is ruled by Pisces, of course. The Chiron and Neptune in Pisces years have coincided with a boom in new varieties of alcohol and the rise of ‘super’ chains of alcohol outlets. This period has also seen the return of Cocktail Bars and in Britain, the rise of Wetherspoons.

Yoga has gone mainstream since Chiron and Neptune both began moving through Pisces together. Yoga is about inner space. Navel-gazing. The soul or spirit, without the office wardrobe or the usual work shoes/clothes. Just you and your bare feet.

Hiding From the CCTV and Smart Phone Cameras

The vast spread of CCTV cameras, particularly across cities like London – and the Apple technology which allows people to photograph you without your knowledge or consent – along with Apple’s notorious facial recognition – is a global Chiron and Neptune in Pisces trend which may have affect you very personally.

Perhaps you have been swept up in a general craving for privacy without even realising it.

You can see it in fashion. Hoodies hide heads. Baseball caps (of which Donald Trump is so fond) also hide the face. Beanies and bobble hats, sunglasses and scarves disguise us. Fooling around with Instagram and iPhone filters and colours also helps us change our online identity so that we cannot be recognised. Are you aware of this? You may have one or more Pisces factors in your chart, but the years of Pisces weather have affected you.

How Chiron and Neptune in Pisces Have Affected You

What to look for in your life and your chart – how has this long eight-year cycle affected you and what will you do, once the twin transit ends?

Social Media as a secret snooping (tool leading to a ‘fishbowl’ life. Watched and watching!
The home as a bar/cellar/pub because drink-driving penalties stop everybody going out.
Your laptop or phone and YouTube, Skype, Instagram, Twitter and Facebook ‘realities.’
Inward thinking in the age of Selfies, Selfie Sticks and Social Me-Me-Me-dia = introversion.
Constant decisions about going public/keeping it private and being anonymous/named.
Spending more time alone/looking inward online may have led you on a spiritual search.
Your conflicts have gone underground; you fight Cold Wars by Unfriending/Unfollowing.
Solitude and alcohol or pills (Ecstasy) or tabs (LSD) – Valium or Prozac alter your reality.
Netflix and the box-set boom mean binge-watching film and TV becomes part of you.
Your YouTube ‘face’ and your online ‘face’ are not you (not at all) but they feel like you!

Over to You

I am sure you have found other ways in which the Neptune and Chiron in Pisces ‘double fog’ effect on your Twelfth House has had a major impact. Neptune remains in Pisces and your Twelfth House until 2025 moving across 13 through 29 degrees of the sign. The cycle isn’t completely over, in terms of its impact on your life below the surface, or your holidays from reality – but with the departure of Chiron it’s less intense.

If you have a stellium in Pisces (more than three personal birth chart factors in Pisces and the Twelfth House – so that it’s one of your three or four ‘leading’ signs – and the Twelfth House is one of your most crowded – please go to and listen to my Podcast about how this affects your personality and life, long-term.

Venus also rules the Second House, which is about jewellery, gold and money, as well as food - all the valuable items of life.

]]>In this continuing series about Horoscope Houses in Astrology, we come to the Seventh House. The Seventh House is ruled by the zodiac sign Libra. If you are a Premium Member and have your birth chart, you can see at a glance which planets, asteroids, Nodes or angles are in either house. If you have a stellium (more than three factors) in Libra, then your Seventh House will describe major events in your life that make you who you are.

Even if you don’t have your natal chart (personal birth horoscope) with all the 34 factors of modern astrology, you can still find out a great deal about predicting the future, from watching the Seventh House and Eighth House in your ‘public’ horoscope. This is your Sun Sign horoscope or Solar Sign chart. It’s a different system but it works to show you what the world in general knows about you. What the world sees. (Your personal chart shows the huge, sweeping, back story).

The Seventh House and Eighth House can also show your personality. This is where it becomes complicated, but interesting. The patterns (aspects) made involving factors in these houses can show how difficult or easy it is for you to ‘do’ the partnerships of the Seventh House or the financial and sexual agreements of the Eighth House!

Horoscope Houses in Astrology – The Seventh House

The Seventh House is ruled by Libra and Venus. Venus also rules the Second House, which is about jewellery, gold and money, as well as food – all the valuable items of life. This might sound confusing until you realise that scales are required to weigh commodities like this. Scales are also a symbol of justice, and the law, and as marriage, common law marriage (the clue is in the name) and professional partnerships are legally binding agreements, you can see why Venus can also rule the Seventh House and Libra – the balanced scales – at the same time.

Another confusing thing about the Seventh House is its association with enemies, rivals and opponents – the opposition – at the same time as its rulership of former, current and potential partners. Actually it’s all common sense when you think about it. When you fall in love with someone, there is usually a third person in the background. This may be your former lover, or your new partner’s ex-wife-, ex-husband, ex-girlfriend or ex-boyfriend. This person is often seen as a rival, perhaps, or if the break-up was difficult, this blast from the past, may be very much seen as the enemy. Thus, you get both sides of the Seventh House to deal with at the same time.

It is also true that falling in love with someone and becoming his/her partner, means excluding others who want you (or who want him, or her). Thus, the idea of rivalry but also partnership that comes with the Seventh House. Another common outcome of factors in the Seventh House is a couple united in ‘fighting the good fight’ against a common enemy. When we see a husband and wife who have joined forces to wage a war on something (or sometimes, someone) we are seeing Libra at work, and also the Seventh House at work.

This also shows up in business, academia and the professions. Partnerships which are based on work are often made stronger (glued together more tightly) because both people have joined forces as allies against a rival in their field, or perhaps an outright opponent. A good example of this might be the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister who become a working couple in politics, attacking the opposition. Writing in Horoscope Symbols (Whitford Press 1981) Robert Hand notes, “That both marriage and open enemies are symbolised by the Seventh House is a clue to understanding this house. The seventh represents a certain kind of relationship common to both marriage and two persons locked in combat.”

As with all the houses, we need to go back to the zodiac sign itself (Libra) which rules the house, and Venus, the planet in charge, to find all the layers. Venus was the Roman goddess of love, although she was actually associated with adultery (she had sex with Vulcan behind her husband Mars’s back) and jealousy (she subjected her future daughter-in-law to mental torture, because she envied her beauty).

From Venus we get the phrase “All’s fair in love and war” and as she was married to Mars, the god of war, this adds another dimension to the Seventh House. You only have to look at any dating app or website to see Venus at work. The Seventh House is about the game of love. Passion for its own sake. The art of romance. The scales of Libra can sometimes lead to justice or fairness issues which must be decided with lawyers – classically, the divorce court – but less formally, ideas about equality belong here too.

The ultimate aim of strongly Seventh House people is to balance the scales so that ‘equal but different’ works and both sides operate together. The two-headed creature that emerges – the power couple, perhaps, or the dynamic duo – is the best possible outcome. It’s The Special Relationship. Like the United States and Great Britain (of old) there is usually a common enemy to bind the two players together, no matter how different they actually are. And of course, many people are threatened by a dynamic duo, no matter if it is the Joker confronted by Batman and Robin, or Hitler and Hirohito dealing with Churchill and Eisenhower in 1944. In truth, ‘the two of us’ operating together is one of the most formidable sights in astrology. Two is the magic number, to quote De La Soul.

]]>Horoscope Houses in Astrology

In this continuing series about the Horoscopes Houses of Astrology, I’ll look at the meaning of the Fifth House and Sixth House, in your birth chart. If you are a Premium Member, check your chart now. Factors in Leo will be in your Fifth House. Factors in Virgo will be in your Sixth House.

If you don’t have your personal birth chart, you can still make more sense of my daily, weekly and monthly predictions for you, just by knowing which house of your Solar Sign chart (Zodiac sign/Sun sign chart) the travelling planets are passing through. This will show you the headlines of your life.

The in-depth story, behind the headlines, comes from a natal chart or personal horoscope set up for your time, place and date of birth. It can be interesting to compare both, and see how there is a public story at the same time as a private story too. The houses show you the main news. As you’ll see in this third instalment of my Horoscope Houses series, the Fifth House is about children and your relationship with younger people. The Sixth House is about your work-life balance and your body.

Horoscope Houses in Astrology – The Sixth House

The Sixth House of the horoscope is ruled by Virgo and Mercury. Astrology is based on the twelve constellations of the Zodiac, and is very simple to understand when you realise that Virgo the Virgin was a young maiden, many centuries ago, who because she was unmarried, had to stay at home with her parents and do housework. Her physical condition (the intact virgin) dictated her entire life. Her identity, the work she did, the sense of duty she had to her parents, the service she performed cleaning, cooking and looking after the animals – all came about because of the shape she was in.

I’ll go further into this idea of Virgo as body/workload with you, if you were born with Uranus or Pluto in Virgo in the 1960’s then you bore witness to the production of The Pill and its impact on women. It affected their bodies, but also their work. I should mention that we very rarely in history see Uranus and Pluto making the patterns they did in the 1960’s and so astrologers had long been predicting some revolution in medicine, health or surgery that would transform life for a generation. Well, The Pill was that revolution. It liberated women to skip pregnancy and stay in the workforce.

The Sixth House is revealing if you are trying to find a psychological or spiritual explanation for a particular illness or chronic condition. The planets, asteroids, angles or Nodes in the Sixth House, and the patterns (aspects) they make with the rest of your personal birth chart can show you what needs attention – and why it might need attention. Commonly it is related to the work you do, and how your unconscious mind, or your very soul, feels about doing that work.

The Sixth House is very much about daily rituals and the method and order of your regular routine. I sometimes read that ‘Virgo is healthy’ or planets in the Sixth House mean you are some macrobiotic-munching yoga guru. Actually, some very famous people with the Sun in Virgo in the Sixth House have been long-standing heroin addicts. The daily ritual of getting a fix is an extreme, terrible example of how this house operates sometimes. In the case of drug addiction, the physical state and physical condition (doped up, if you are a daily cannabis user) directly affects your work ethic – and you may not work at all.

Most people with Sixth House placements, in my experience, have some kind of daily routine and find it hard to depart from that. They may wake at 6.00am and start working from home, with a coffee, before they ever think about going to the office. They may get into other habits, like smoking while on the computer – or, impressively, sticking to a vegan diet and a daily Pilates session.

In all cases, right across the board, it is the body you own, the shape you are in, and the state your doctor says you are in – which dictates what you do. I am sure you are so used to your body and also your work that you have probably forgotten just how important that is. I know rapid speed typists, for example, whose jobs (as court and political reporters) have come about purely from their flying fingers.

People with particular eyesight issues may find their career options are closed off, and in fact severely long-sighted and short-sighted people alike may have forgotten how their youthful work choices had to be made on this basis. I have known some actors who come to this website – anonymously of course! – who are overweight, taller than average – and so end up with very particular kinds of parts in films.

I hope you are getting a feeling for Virgo and the Sixth House that makes sense to you. The ‘condition your condition is in’ dictates your workload.

Mercury rules both Gemini and Virgo in astrology, but in his rulership of the Sixth House, he is about the mind that organises, plans and makes lists. There is method and order with the Sixth House. Think of the youngest daughter in the house, still to lose her virginity, trying to help run her family home in the 17th century. There is a lot to manage. A lot of trivial but crucial detail to sort out. Thus, the Sixth House is about the minutiae of daily existence and how to structure that.
